Current weather

With sails hoisted and the wind at 4 knots, children in water shoes and life jackets enjoy one of the area’s unique summer camps.

Seven weeks out of the summer, the Augusta Sailing Club holds a junior sailing camp at Clark Hill Lake. Jim Holder, director of the camp, said any apprehension a camper has about sailing disappears on the first day.

“Once we get them here, they want to come back every week,” he said. “Every year, this is the favorite camp.”

The following account was taken from Columbia County Sheriff’s office incident reports:
